We are all being gouged and no one wants to realize it. It almost seems like the general public just accepts it. I just paid $4.89 for diesel. I've been able to make a half a tank last 2.5 weeks.

Fuel is seriously out of control, and strange the fuel prices have been just effected furing the election. :willy_nilly:

Does the word "TERRORISTS" ring a bell!! Oh yeh, don't forget the
WMD's that dissappeared! I'm pretty sure those are being stored

If we would have listened to Gen Dugan back in 91, Iraq would be a glass parking lot! He was swiftly removed once his comments were made, but how many lives and money would have been saved.......

Anyone believe gas prices with ever go back down again?

As much as I would like to believe it could go down, I really don't. :(

From OPEC's (http://www.opec.org/home/) website:

OPEC's mission is to coordinate and unify the petroleum policies of Member Countries and ensure the stabilization of oil markets in order to secure an efficient, economic and regular supply of petroleum to consumers, a steady income to producers and a fair return on capital to those investing in the petroleum industry.

-------------------------------------------------
I think they screwed the pooch :willy_nilly: on their mission statement.... I say we take over ALL the OPEC countries FOR their oil. :smack: :rofl:

Goes to show that when government puts there hand in military affairs they screw it up the whole operation. BIG TIME!

yea it will it will go down $0.50, and everybody will be happy
YEAH!!! :D :rofl:

The only way gasonline will reach .50 a gallon is if alternative fuels are introduced on a nationwide scale, especially here in Commiefornia.

OPEC as no competition. Plain and simple they have a monopoly and Congress has done nothing to break it up their influence here.

This is a old post that some brought back to life! Don't we all wish we could get gas at this price! :banghead:

By year end I'm guessing $5.50+ for fuel. It's not what we want to hear. Think about how much it has gone up in last 6 months. :mad5:

We pay here 1,53 Euro for a litre.
You pay 3.67 or more for a gallon.
1 gallon=3,785 litre.

Frank:driving: :driving:

*Correction* We haven't paid $3.67 in almost 8 months, we are creeping up to $5.00 for premium gas :willy_nilly:

that seems like a distant memory!

:iagree: Again things we take for granted. :patriot: I wonder why the Europeans have been paying more for gas for so long? Why is that? Anyone know? They pull from the same fuel sources as we do right?

The Daily Breeze (http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/files/specials/interactives/_international/gas_prices/index.html?SITE=CATOR&SECTION=HOME) has a breakdown of oil costs & final gas price worldwide.

Very interesting - from earlier in 2008 so prices have changed *a bit*.

Filled up yesterday and gas was 3.55 for regular and 3.75 for premium. Though had to sit in line for 20 mins as this was a grand opening for a new gas station.

I have also noticed here in certian parts of the state that the Truck Stops have the cheapest gas, though you wuoldn't want to buy anything inside.

$3.75 per gallon for the good stuff??? Where the heck was this?! :willy_nilly:

We saw a 4 cent drop in gas this week, has anyone else seen a drop? I know its hopeful thinking that its just more than this one location. Considering gas has gone up nearly a $1.00 over the last year, a .04 cent drop isn't much, how I look at it any signs up going down is good! :party:

gas here went from $4.71 to $4.69, yeah still gettin screwed!!!:banghead:

gas here went from $4.71 to $4.69, yeah still gettin screwed!!!:banghead:

Yeah its minor when you consider the big picture, hell any drop is welcomed in my book! I just hope to see the trend continue.

The gas is going down a little, very slowly albeit!

Hey every cent in that direction counts! :thumbsup:

Anyone else notice a drop in gas prices over the last week? We have seen almost a dime drop in premium gas.

Down 7 cents here, waiting to see a buck drop!

You could be waiting a long time, like never! :eek:

$3.67 a gallon...those were the good old days. Be thankful you don't live in the Bay Area. I'm paying $4.78 gal, minimum.

It would be nice to see the USA drill for some more oil. Then we might see some lower fuel prices!?

If USA tapped for more oil, it doubt the fuel prices would ever go back down completely, the oil companies will just increase their profits.

Wasn't someone saying that if hurricane hits the gulf good we could see fuel prices in the $8-9 range?

Hurricanes come every year and now 'experts' are saying if a hurricane hits then the price of gas will go up to $8-9 dollars. I don't by it. It sounds like the experts are finding 'reasons' to increase the price of fuel.

Price Gouging anyone?

:iagree: Yeah no kidding it's gouging!!!

QuickSilver buys Texas gas properties for US$1.3 billion
23 hours ago

FORT WORTH, Tex. — Quicksilver Resources Inc. said Monday it will pay US$1.3 billion for rights to north Texas land that may hold more than one trillion cubic feet of recoverable natural gas.

The acquisitions, from various private parties including Chief Resources LLC, Hillwood Oil & Gas LP and Collins and Young LLC, will give Quicksilver access to Barnett shale in northern Tarrant and southern Denton counties that is producing 45 million cubic feet per day.

The cash part of the deal draws on a $700 million, 30-month second-lien loan facility, operating cash flow and Quicksilver's existing credit facility. The value of the stock part of the deal will be based on the volume weighted-average price for the 15 consecutive trading days immediately prior to the three trading days just before closing.

The transaction is scheduled to close Aug. 8.

Quicksilver estimates the properties contain more than 1 trillion cubic feet of recoverable natural gas resources, net to the company. That volume includes about 350 billion cubic feet of proved reserves.

Quicksilver estimates its production will grow at a three-year compound annual rate of about 50 per cent, after adjusting for the November 2007 divestment of operations in Michigan, Indiana and Kentucky.

$3.67 for gallon of gas?? LOL what is going on with the gas prices? I just filled up last night with a near .10 cent gain from last week??

Anyone keep on top of this stuff?

hahahaha the good ole days

I'd say most people on this forum make middle class money and we're complaining about the cost of fuel. Imagine how the people working down at the local McDonalds are feeling.

Guys, we are all falling into the trap of the oil companies! IF gas ever fell to $3.50 per gallon, we would be jumping with joy!! What was everyone paying a year ago? Two years ago?

The oil companies need to be investing their profits into finding alternate energy. The auto industry seem to be heading into that direction. I guess that Big Oil wants to supress new energy sources as long as they can so they can keep collecting thier Billions in profits.:wtf:

Actually I think it's OPEC and speculators that are hosing us.

I agree with what you are saying, but I still think that the oil companies could help us out. Over the weekend, Newt Gingrich was on Fox news and really came down hard on the speculators. He actually called them un-American because they were one of the biggest causes of the price of oil. In the early 70's we imported around 20% of our oil. Now it is over 70%. He said that if the Federal Oil Reserve would release about 25 or 30% of our reserves, it would drive down the price of world oil, drop the cost of gas, and bankrupt most of the speculators. I wish he would have run for president! Right now we have oil in Alaska, Texas, and off the gulf coast. All we have to do is change some laws that were passed by the Dems to prevent drilling, and go get it!!!

It's OURS!!! Let's get it yesterday! :D
I get tired of the "we can't drill now it will take 5 years and then it will only affect the price by a few cents" argument anyway.
We need a comprehensive plan not the "Make the auto manufacturers get 40 MPG on average" mentality. Yeah I want my MPG but I also want a car/truck that is actually useful and has a bit of power.

:iagree: I forget what magazine, but they where just talking about this.

Reading this post, the first thing that came to mind is the old Beattles song "Yesterday".

We are down to $4.61 per gallon for the good stuff, compared to nearly $4.90 a month ago. Hopefully it keeps going down.
